Animal Spirit
This was a lot of fun for me because I really did take a bit of time trying to be thoughtful and considerate when picking the spirit animals for the crew here at the salon. I based it mostly off their dominate characteristics and some off their appearance (this is where the considerate part comes in).
Some loved their choice, others didn't. It was important to show that it was who they were in reality, so I did my best to be unbiased.
I also wanted to keep it challenging by limiting the animals to North America. Here's what I came up with:

Magpie Magpies are symbolic of illusion and perception. The magpie's message here is that not all things are what they appear to be, and we should not set our judgements in stone. Further, this aspect of the magpie is a message that we do not have to be bound to perceptions. A magpie symbolic meanings are as diverse and colorful as the magpie herself.

I asked everyone else what would be mine and somewhat of a consensus was the wolf. Considering my grandmothers maiden name was Wolfe, I found it to be appropriate.
Wolf
